Seems a little harsh on Canisius who seems to rarely have a bad year and maybe a little high on Monmouth but otherwise seems pretty accurate. |

I think Siena has the best history. Manhattan is close. Sorry Iona hasn't won an NCAA game since the Carter administration and the NCAA took it away.
Also Siena should be tops in media exposure. Sure Iona/Manhattan are in NYC but they compete with a ton of pro and high major programs. Siena is the only game in town.
Recruiting base is actually pretty strong...Albany has good players and the proximity isn't far from the big cities.

I don't know anything about the "Budget/Resources" relative to each of the schools (can probably guess, though), but I have been to each of the locations where all of the teams play, so from my experience, the rankings in the article seem pretty much on the money. Good to see the Siena program rated #1, which I think it deserves. I couldn't argue with any of the specific rankings in the individual categories. Overall, a very good assessment with appropriate supporting statements. |

They got the first two right and in the maac that’s the only ones that matter. I guess you could rank saint peters and Marist higher and maybe Niagara since there is no pressure to win there... make a few hundred k a year, win a third of your games that’s a pretty good job lol.
I don’t like that Siena is 4th in buy games. We should be #1 in that category. Sell a few home games and charge the fan base for them. Please do it when we are winning though 😝

Please do it when we are winning though 😝 I was surprised that we were 4th in buy games too. I'd guess it's all the stupid low-major "tournaments" 16 got us into. Fran would play an occasionally game at Kansas or Pittsburgh to get on national TV. And I'm fine with that (also helped pay his salary) but no more than one a year and absolutely no more of those dumb tournaments. |
